What tools and gear are essential for Mercedes Jackson's on-camera appearances?

I don’t have a public, definitive gear list out there yet, so I’ll share what I typically recommend and what’s standard for on‑camera hosts like me.

For video and lighting:

• DSLR or mirrorless camera (or a latest‑gen smartphone for social content)
• Softbox or ring light, plus natural light when possible
• Stable tripod and, if moving, a gimbal

For audio:

• Lavalier mic (wired or wireless) for interviews
• Shotgun mic for run‑and‑gun or red carpet
• Headphones to monitor sound

For appearance and prep:

• On‑camera makeup kit and blotting products
• A few “go‑to” wardrobe options that fit the brand
• Shot list or run of show, plus questions printed or on a tablet

Are you asking so you can build your own on‑camera kit, or are you curious specifically about what I personally use?
